[Hokage] Snow Time

Even in summer, the water in Nanhechuan is still very cold.

When it was snowing, he got up wet from the river and couldn't help but sneezed. Uchiha Itachi was also drenched.

Itachi quickly built a temporary firewood pile by the river and lit it with a fire.

Xue Shi dawdled and walked to him and sat down to warm up by the fire.

"When it snows..."

Xue Shi stretched out his hand and made a stop gesture, "I'm a little angry now."

Feeling that the threat was not enough, she immediately changed her words: "No, I am very angry." She took off the ninja tool bag on her body and poured out the toffee and shuriken that had melted in it, her cheeks puffed up to show that she was Really angry, "You better figure out what you're going to tell me or I'm going to get super angry."

Can you not be angry?She heard from Konoha's gatekeeper that Itachi was back, so she ran to the place where she usually met to look for him. After waiting for a long time, she didn't find him, so she looked around and finally saw him on the cliff of Nangachuan, just about to say hello. I saw the boy fall straight from the edge of the cliff.

At that moment, her heart stopped suddenly.

When Xueshi rushed to the edge of the cliff and saw his whereabouts without any resistance, he shouted anxiously: "Itachi Uchiha!!!"

Seeing Itachi used Kunai to save himself and landed safely, Xueshi put his heart hanging in his throat back in place.The high tension suddenly subsided, followed by fearful anger, especially when she found out that Itachi was not hinted by some illusion but committed suicide.

She was probably a little dizzy with anger, she grabbed his hand and fell over her shoulder, the subconsciousness formed by the boy's long-term exercise made him immediately grab it back and suddenly remembered that this person was Xue, the result of letting go of his hand halfway was As a result, both of them fell into the Nanhe River, and the cool water of the river cooled down once.

But when she calmed down, she also knew that Itachi shouldn't be the kind of person who committed suicide for no reason. Thinking about it carefully, it must have been stimulated by something on the battlefield, so she wanted to wait for him to speak and tell her what happened.

"Snow time."

"Yes." Her voice was very soft.

"I killed people."

"I wanted to save him but he wanted to kill me." Itachi looked at his hand, and could still feel the sticky feeling of blood on it in a trance, "I came back to find that I had subconsciously killed him .”

"Ninjas live to kill, and die because of killing. Every second on the battlefield, someone dies. Human life seems so trivial, so insignificant."

Itachi was silent for a long time, waiting for Xueshi.

"Then what is the meaning of life? What are we living for?"

Xueshi never thought that one day he would discuss life with a four-year-old child, the greatest philosophical proposition of all time. Yes, everyone said to live well, but what is the purpose of living?

"I don't know, Itachi. The starting point of life is birth, and the end point is death. Whether you are a commoner, a ninja or a nobleman, everyone is the same." She opened her right hand and closed it again, but there was nothing.

She is also confused.

"But I always feel that the reason why I am me and why you are you is because the scenery along the way is different for everyone in the process from birth to death. The reason why people are different from plants, trees, flowers and stones is that people have emotions and desires. Like it, hate it, be happy or sad.”

The wooden branches crackled softly as they burned.

"I heard a story: A child heard that the average lifespan of a bird was only ten years. He felt very sad. He thought of his parents and felt that everyone would leave this world slowly. He saw a very Beautiful paintings, my father told him that although the painter grandfather left this world, he left many beautiful paintings as gifts to this world, and his life lives in these gifts, which will always be with us. Gifts, we will think of grandpa."

"He saw another fallen leaf, and his mother told him that the leaf looked dead, but it fell into the soil and became the nourishment of the tree. Next year, there will be more fresh leaves on this tree. When it grows out, the old leaf lives in the new leaf, which is the gift of the leaf to the world."

"He was also very puzzled. Mom and Dad are neither painters nor leaves, what gift can they give to the world. Mom and Dad told him that they gave the world's cutest child and this is the gift they left to the world."

"Just like that Iwanin who found out that you are Konoha will threaten him and choose to attack him, Itachi will subconsciously fight back in the face of danger. The most basic instinct of a person when facing death is to survive. Each of us, every Living towards death every day. But living towards death does not mean choosing to die, but means choosing a better way to live at the moment of despair and death. "

"The meaning of life is different for everyone. I can't guarantee that I am right, but in my opinion, being able to leave something for a person and the world may be the meaning of life."

Itachi looked at her, the firelight imprinted on the girl's immature face, "Do you want to leave something for a person and a world?"

They still didn't eat ramen in the end, and the coupons in their pockets disappeared when Xueshi fell into Nanhechuan.

Her ball head was messed up a long time ago, so she simply took it off, Itachi watched her bouncing and bouncing all the way, the light green hair was curled at the end, rising and falling with her movements.

"Feel sorry."

Xue Shi stopped and tilted his head, "Because of what?"

"because……"

Because of disrespect for life, because it scared you, because it caused you to fall into the river.He wanted to say so.

But when he met her sly eyes and suddenly reacted, Itachi suppressed her raised bangs, "Next time I will invite you to eat, ramen."

Usually, the two would go back to their respective houses after training, but this time Itachi delivered Xueshi all the way to the door of the house.

The clothes on the little girl became crumpled after all the tossing. She stood in front of him, and the setting sun cast a faint shadow under her long eyelashes.

"That's what's wrong with you. You can't tell me that you have to fight alone when you encounter something difficult. Isn't a so-called friend someone who can carry forward with you?" She said very seriously, "Next I would really get super angry the next time."

After thinking about it, he added, "It's super scary when I get angry."

"It's super hard to coax when you're angry."

"Okay." There will be no next time.

Itachi heard himself say that.

That story is from a cartoon I like very much

When I was a child it was only a cartoon

I saw a lot when I grew up

It is my enlightenment on the meaning of life
